I have some users interested in setting up lists to send out text
messages to phones/PDAs. We have figured out that the confirmation
messages for subscription do not work on these devices. We figured out
that the approve method of subscription works, but the email it sends to
let the user know their subscription is waiting is rather long. Has
anyone tweaked Mailman to work with these devices? I don't see any
patches out there for it.
Mailman does Internet e-mail. Are these phones/PDAs doing Internet
e-mail? If so, then the mail clients shouldn't have any problems
with the messages Mailman is sending out -- I know I don't have any
such problems on my Palm Treo 680. Heck, in an emergency I can even
handle the web-based moderation queue for Mailman-hosted mailing
lists on my Treo -- that's one advantage of a simple web user
interface.
Now, if these phones/PDAs are doing SMS messages that have been
gatewayed from Internet e-mail, then you're talking about a problem
with the gateway system, and there may not be a whole lot we can do
to help you.
